Ordo IX contains Erasmus’ controversies with his evangelical opponents, viz. the apologetics that Erasmus wished to write in his numerous polemics. This volume of the Amsterdam edition of his Opera omnia presents a critical edition of the Latin text of seven of these writings, accompanied by an introduction in German and a commentary including an identification of sources quoted, and, where relevant, linguistic, philological, theological or historical background information.
